Centromochlus perugiae is a species of benthopelagic fish, a member of the Auchenipteridae (driftwood catfish) family. They are widely known as honeycomb catfish or oil catfish because of their striking skin pattern. Honeycomb catfish are under fully grown.

Distribution Their distribution includes Peru, Ecuador and Brazil. They prefer water temperature in the range with pH of 6–7.

Behavior Honeycomb catfish like to anchor themselves into crevices in driftwood and hide. They are mostly nocturnal and seek hiding spaces and shade. A very peaceful species, in an aquarium, honeycomb catfish do not bother other inhabitants of a community tank.Encyclopedia of Life
